Chapter 186: Tea-Filled Skye, the Eastern Continent Begins War [1/5 Requires Automatic Subscription].
“The Confederates have built an ironclad ship in the inland rivers south of the kingdom of Ale!”
When Ezio said that.
Not only Ulysses, but even Sophia, who had been watching around the artillery, had come together at this moment. Ezio continued.
“They built a very primitive steam-powered ironclad ship by dismantling and refitting the steam engine that we exported to some merchants, and they…”
When Ulysses heard this, he had no interest in continuing to listen.
If you don’t know how to do it, you may think that steam-powered ironclad ships, with steam engines, will succeed in wrapping iron armor. But if it were that simple, it wouldn’t have represented a naval era in Ulysses’ past life.
Ezio’s intelligence was still relatively limited, but Ulysses was sure that the so-called steam-powered ironclads were a bunch of patchwork and hole-ridden garbage.
And just like Ulysses thought. Lake Seychelles in the Kingdom of Ayr, as the largest inland river in the Kingdom of Ayr, is not only deep enough, but also has a channel leading to the sea. With the formal establishment of the Confederate Powers, the United Navy collapsed, and HNA was completely restricted.
The inland river shipyard here in the Kingdom of Ayr became the last hope of the entire Confederate navy.
“Boom…..”
Billowing smoke poured out of the chimney, and in the nervous anticipation of everyone, suddenly, a huge sound suddenly erupted.
“Boom!”
Billowing black smoke erupted from the middle of the entire ironclad ship, and the flames filled the air, accompanied by terrified screams.
“Ah! The boiler exploded! ”
“Save me! Come on people, put out the fire! ”
The faces of everyone changed, and the ships that had been prepared around them all leaned over, and all kinds of busy rescuing the crew members on the ship.
“Mr. Hudson, why is that?” Why did it explode?! ”
A naval admiral was full of anticipation, and it turned into a bubble, with an angry look on his face at the moment.
However, the chief designer of the Confederate ironclads known as Hudson was bitter at the moment.
“General, we have no way to do anything about it, the kind of steam engine used by the factory itself is different from the steam engine used by the Pruk Empire on warships and trains, and the low-pressure steam engine of the factory is simply not enough to drive the big guys who are more terrifying than that.”
“We need to find a way to get a high-pressure steam engine from the Prussian Empire, or to study it ourselves….”
“Then study!”
The general said immediately.
At this point, Hudson really didn’t know what to say.
Talking to unprofessional people about professional issues is a rather absurd thing in itself.
“General, the high-pressure steam engine itself is not said to be built, its own materials and technology are problems, not to mention anything else, the steel of the boiler itself, our domestic production is seriously substandard, which is why the furnace is fried.”
“Also, our coal treatment technology is not enough, and the quality of the coal itself is also a big problem, and the combustion rate is not high.”
“Also, the steel of our own ironclad ships is not qualified, and the collision angle thing and the ironclad ships of the Pruk Empire collide together, and they cannot get any advantage at all.”
“Also…..”
Watching Hudson gush and complain about one question after another, the Union Admiral finally couldn’t bear it, and the headache immediately left.
White Jade Palace.
When Ulysses finished analyzing the plans for the construction of naval ironclads on the Confederate side, Sophia, who was still a little anxious, finally calmed down at this moment.
However, then she frowned with some resentment.
“So when will you be able to sell us ironclads, your more powerful warships haven’t been built yet?”
Ulysses leaned back in his chair and snorted softly, not making any senseless denial that the Empire was now secretly building more powerful warships.
Just then, Helen knocked on the door and walked in.
“Father of the Nation, Dean Yule is here.”
Ulysses nodded, and soon he summoned Yule. Jolton walked in, but to his doubts, Yule was followed by a beautiful blonde woman.
When the young girl saw Ulysses, her whole face immediately showed a bright and moving, full of admiration. Follow Yule and salute Ulysses slightly.
Sophia, who was sitting at Ulysses’s desk, raised an eyebrow at Ulysses with a smirk, and the light in her eyes did not know what it meant.
Stand up and go straight outside.
“Since you’re busy here, I’m also going to see international students at major universities.”
After Sophia left, Ulysses looked questioningly at the maiden behind Yule, who hurriedly apologized for the introduction.
“Father of the Nation, this is my daughter, Skye Jodon, I heard that Father of the Nation, you summoned me, crying and making a fuss to get me to take her with you, my wife died early, just such a daughter, I…”
Ulysses heard the words and didn’t say anything more, waving his hand to signal that the other party should not be nervous.
“Teacher Yule, you are about to go to Volgograd County to establish the Volgograd University of the Arts, and I have one thing on my side that you need to do before you leave.”
Yule rubbed his hands in frustration, not expecting Ulysses to call him a teacher. Behind him, Skye looked at his titular master brother in his eyes, and the emotion under his eyes was getting stronger and stronger. Ulysses looked down to take something from the desk drawer and didn’t notice it.
However, Helen Di, who was also in the office, was looking at Skye’s eyes at the moment. There are no surprises in such a situation.
Who could refuse, a man like Ulysses?
Ulysses took out a thick document and shoved it in front of Yule.
“[Les Misérables] Mr. Yule, you should have seen it, and I want to adapt it into a musical in the near future, and this matter is entrusted to you, even if it is the first task of the future Volgograd University of the Arts.”
Yule took the file, and as soon as he opened it, he saw that it contained a song that had been composed and the lyrics. With his musical literacy, just by looking at it for a while, he can feel the strong artistic value contained in it.
The original trepidation turned directly into excitement at this moment, and he held the document and turned page after page.
Seeing this, Helen took the place directly to a meeting room next door to the office, but Skye did not leave with the other party.
“Well, Miss Skye, are you in trouble?”
Ulysses looked at the maiden standing in front of him and asked with some confusion.
Skye was obviously a little confused at the moment, but he still had a smile on his calm face. She glanced nervously at the closed door behind her.
“Miss Helen is really capable, unlike me, even singing is always a problem on weekdays, and nothing can be done.”
Ulysses: “…”
He looked wordlessly in front of him, because of the extreme nervousness, and appeared to have a disordered language function, and began to tea and tea. The affection in the eyes of the other party is naturally in the eyes, but he is not a person who comes to receive one.
Otherwise, the White Jade Palace and the Rottis Palace, two palaces, do not know how many equally beautiful maids.
Skye is also aware of his own gibberish, and in the face of Ulysses’s piercing eyes, for a moment, his brain is completely chaotic.
I want to say something, but I can’t say it at all, and I have to cry stupidly by my own uselessness.
“Miss Skye’s voice is very good, but I think you must be singing very well.”
Ulysses put down the pen in his hand, looked at this obviously immature girl, or spoke out to comfort the other party, after all, the other party’s father, treating his predecessor, is indeed good.
Being human is also worthy of respect.
Skye heard this, and his pale face was finally looking better.
Ulysses smiled slightly: “Fantine’s character has a lot of stories to tell, and it is also a very important female character in my book, and when the musical is ready, I will definitely go to see it in person.” ”
“Miss Skye’s image and skills can actually be tried.”
At this moment, Skye only felt as if she had been approved by Ulysses, so that with her back to the window, Ulysses bathed in sunlight, in her eyes, even a little more sacred.
Just as Skye was about to say something, the office door was pushed open again. Helen walked in, “Miss Skye, your father called you. ”
In a fondness to Ulysses, he looked back three times from his desk to the door. When Skye left, Helen said to Ulysses without a moment’s hesitation.
“It seems that Miss Skye can’t refuse the charm of the Father of the Nation, but she doesn’t know what Master Yule will think.”
Ulysses rolled his eyes wordlessly.
Holy East Continental.
When the messenger of the Divine Sect on this side of the kingdom returned to the holy capital with Zerio’s words. Sure enough, it immediately caused dissatisfaction among the high-level officials.
Pope Christian, as well as the upper echelons of the Holy See, immediately ordered the seizure and confiscation of caravans and cheap cloth in the kingdom of Chirjaron.
And a large number of merchants from the kingdom of Chirgaron were expelled.
This move immediately aroused the strong anger of Zelio’s side.
May 17, 801.
When a declaration of war from the Kingdom of Chirgaron is sent to the Holy Kingdom of St. Antines. The two countries in the eastern part of the Holy East Continent officially entered a state of war.
